An overiding puzzle to me in this dispute is if only a couple of thousand CC went on strike, why the heck have the other 8,000 or so BASSA members not resigned their BASSA membership in protest at BASSA's actions? I know a few have resigned, but it appears to be a small number. Presumably anyone still a member of BASSA must be in agreement with the dispute, despite working through the IA
From this, it follows that even if BA sack the 2,000 or so strikers, the remaining BASSA members will still be in dispute.
Perhaps explains why WW has not summarily dismissed those who went on strike last time.
